I'm sorry I've kind of abandoned this journal - I just haven't had the time to keep it up. I do miss the interaction with all my friends here, though. I still half-heartedly keep up my livejournal at: http://octopusgrrl.livejournal.com/ so you're welcome to visit me there. At the moment I feel like I'm never going to get the chance to pick up a crochet hook again, but I'm sure things will settle eventually!
